Think of delicious accompaniments like seafood, trout, and soft cheeses. In short, this wine pairs well with: finger food, shellfish, white fish, soft cheeses, and chicken with fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe local Turbiana grape plays the leading role in this white wine. The grapes grow on the beautiful hills south of Lake Garda. At optimal ripeness, they are hand-picked and immediately transported to the winery. There, they are gently pressed, and alcoholic fermentation takes place at low temperatures. During the winter months, the wine continues to mature on fine lees in stainless steel tanks. The wine is bottled in March and April.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe estate\u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/selva-capuzzo\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #B2002B\"\u003e Selva Capuzza\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e is located four kilometers south of Lake Garda and is owned by the Formentini family. The estate offers a wide range of activities: there is a restaurant in the old 13th-century farmhouse, there are apartments in another farmhouse and a renovated old barn, there is abundant nature with a great diversity of flora and fauna, and of course, there are the winery and vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBiodiversity is strongly promoted on the estate, and they work in a way that, although not organically certified, goes much further in the opinion of the Formentinis. They believe that every producer must find their own ecological balance, primarily depending on the geographical location. In the case of Selva Capuzza, this means, for example, that they have not used any herbicides since 2010, all electricity is generated naturally, and the wine is bottled in lighter-than-usual bottles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vineyards are located in a natural amphitheater, 5 minutes south of Lake Garda. They are on average 60 meters above the level of Lake Garda, which means there is always wind. This ensures that the vineyards are naturally cooled and, if necessary, blown dry. The soils consist mainly of clay mixed with medium and large stones left behind by the glaciers that were there during the last ice age. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Selva Capuzza","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58944359334213,"sku":"P28082","price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1078\/1183\/2133\/files\/3dc466260603014fa1267d9b6d653431b19fc967.jpg?v=1787299758","url":"https:\/\/vechtstreekwijnen.nl\/en\/products\/selva-capuzza-lugana","provider":"Vechtstreek Wijnen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
